Glacier National Park in Montana share boundaries with Canada, an American Indian
reservation and a national forest. Along the North Fork of the Flathead River, the park also borders
about 17,000 acres of private lands that are currently used for ranching, timber, and agriculture. This
land is an important part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that
frequent the park. These private lands are essentially the ones available for development in the
region.
With encouragement from the park, local landowners initiated a land-use planning effort to
guide the future of the North Fork. The park is a partner in an interlocal agreement that calls for
resource-management agencies to work together and with the more than 400 private owners in the
area. A draft plan has been prepared, with the objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but
limiting new development that would damage park resources. Voluntary action by landowner, in
cooperation with the park, and the country, is helping to restrict small-lot subdivisions, maintain
wildlife corridors, and minimize any harmful impact on the environment.
The willingness of local landowners to participate in this protection effort may have been
stimulated by concerns that Congress would impose a legislative solution. Nevertheless, many local
residents want to retain the existing character of the area. The meetings between park officials and
landowners have led to a dramatically improved understanding of all concerns.

Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin, a British comic actor and filmmaker who rose to fame in the silent
era. Chaplin became a worldwide icon through his screen persona "the Tramp" and is considered
one of the most important figures of the film industry. His career spanned more than 75 years, from a
child in the Victorian era to close to his death at the age of 88, and encompassed both adulation and
controversy.
Raised in London, Chaplin's childhood was fraught with poverty and hardship. His father was
absent, and his mother was committed to a mental asylum. Chaplin was sent to a workhouse twice
before the age of nine. The council housed him at the Central London District School for paupers
existence.
Chaplin began performing from a young age, touring music halls and later working as a stage
actor and comedian. At 19 he was scouted by American film industry, and made his first appearances
in 1914 with Keystone Studios. He soon developed the Tramp persona and formed a large fan base.
Chaplin directed his films from an early stage, and continued to hone his craft as he moved to the
First National corporations. However, the 1940s was a decade marked with controversy for Chaplin,
and his popularity declined rapidly. He was accused of communist sympathies, while his
involvement in a paternity suit and marriages to much younger women were considered scandalous.
An FBI investigation was opened on Chaplin, and he was eventually forced to leave the United
States and settle in Switzerland.
Chaplin wrote, directed, produced, edited, scored, and starred in most of his films. His films are
characterized by slapstick combined with pathos, and often feature the Tramp struggling against
adversity. Many contain social and political themes, as well as autobiographical elements. In 1972, as
part of a renewed appreciation for his work, Chaplin received an Honorary Academy Award for "the
incalculable effect he has had in making motion pictures the art form of this century."
【題組】51. What is the main topic of the passage?
(A) How Chaplin became famous at one night.
(B) Poverty makes a great movie star in the silent era.
(C) Chaplin’s life and the history of his career development.

controversy.

(A) Exaggerated, boisterous actions which may exceed the boundaries of common sense.
(B) An appeal to the audience's emotions.
(C)) An encounter and treatment of grief or mishaps.
(D) Impressive romance and humorous dialogues.

54.【題組】54. It can be inferred from the passage that the main character ―the Tramp‖ was a person who
was _______________.
(A) loving, and helpful in assisting others dealing with troubles
(B) a wanderer that often encountered with difficulties
(C) a trouble maker, causing a lot of social problems
(D) easy-going and enjoying success and friendship

56.(C)
A pandemic is an epidemic of infectious disease that has spread through human populations
across a large region; for instance multiple continents, or even worldwide. A widespread endemic
disease that is stable in terms of how many people are getting sick from it is not a pandemic. Further,
flu pandemics generally exclude recurrences of seasonal flu. Throughout history there have been a
number of pandemics, such as smallpox and tuberculosis. More recent pandemics include the HIV
pandemic and the H1N1 pandemics of 1918 and 2009.
In 2003, there were concerns that Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), a new and
highly contagious form of atypical pneumonia, might become pandemic. It is caused by a
coronavirus dubbed SARS-CoV. Rapid action by national and international health authorities such
as the World Health Organization (WHO) helped to slow transmission and eventually broke the
chain of transmission, which ended the localized epidemics before they could become a pandemic.
However, the disease has not been eradicated. It could re-emerge. This warrants monitoring and
reporting of suspicious cases of atypical pneumonia.
Antibiotic-resistant microorganisms may contribute to the re-emergence of diseases which are
currently well controlled. For example, cases of tuberculosis that are resistant to traditionally
effective treatments remain a cause of great concern to health professionals. Inappropriate antibiotic
treatment and overuse of antibiotics have been an element in the emergence of resistant bacteria. The
problem is further exacerbated by self-prescribing of antibiotics by individuals without the
guidelines of a qualified clinician and the non-therapeutic use of antibiotics as growth promoters in
agriculture.
【題組】56. According to the passage, which of the following statements about ―endemic disease‖ is
NOT true?
(A) It occurs locally. (B) It is predictable.
(C) It reoccurs seasonally. (D) It does not spread through human populations.

58.【題組】58. According to the passage, SARS _______________.
(A) originated as a pandemic
(B) was a widespread endemic disease
(C) was eliminated eventually by WHO
(D) emerged in 2003 since people take antibiotics improperly

60.【題組】60. What can be inferred from the above passage?
(A) Human beings will not get influenza A because the disease is only infectious
to domestic poultry.
(B) Once influenza A viruses spread out, a burst of deadly disaster will happen to
chickens, ducks, or geese raised domestically.
(C) Smallpox could occur again mainly because victims take medicine without
guidance or permission of clinic doctors.
(D) It is legitimate to employ antibiotics as growth promoters in agriculture.
